NEW YEAR, NEW PROJECTS!
Hello 2020! We have SO many exciting things happening this year already in library class at South Hill. I can not wait for you to hear and see all the wonderful things we will be doing.
GRASSHOPR Graduate Student School Outreach Program Cornell University
An exciting opportunity for second graders is coming to library!
GRASSHOPR pairs Cornell graduate students with teachers in Tompkins, Tioga, and Seneca counties to teach 3-to 5-session mini-courses on topics related to the graduate student’s field or interests.
We have a wonderful PhD student Deanna who will starting with us next week! She specializes in robotics for children. She has so many ideas for great lessons surrounding robotics and engineering! I can not wait to see what we have in store for us.

Upcycled Instruments
Help us with our “recycled instruments!”
Third graders are going to take part in a fun project where we design, build, and decorate our own instruments made out of trash! To help us have a large selection of materials to choose from, please consider donating some of the following items:
-Cereal boxes (and smaller please!), cardboard tubes (paper towel,
wrapping paper, toilet paper), paper plates, metal pie plates, egg cartons,
Pringle cans, twisty ties, rubber bands, etc…
Please make sure that whatever you donate, you follow these important rules:
-Materials should be CLEAN
-All materials should be recyclable
-Make sure materials are safe for our use (not sharp)!
We will be accepting materials from now until the week after we return from Winter Recess. Just think of all the trash you can donate after our holiday season is over!
Please bring all materials directly to the Music Room.....thanks for your help!
